For an even richer flavor, toast the shredded coconut in a dry pan over medium heat until lightly golden before garnishing. If you prefer a less sweet rice, reduce the amount of sugar or omit it altogether. To cook this in a rice cooker, combine all ingredients in the rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions for white rice. You may need to adjust the water amount slightly depending on your rice cooker.
